Noradrenaline ELISA kits are assays designed to detect the catecholamine noradrenaline, also known as norepinephrine. It is a hormone and neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is released mainly during the body’s ‘fight or flight’ reaction, elevating heart rate and blood pressure while promoting vigilance, restlessness and anxiety. In the brain, it also enhances memory formation and retrieval. Alpha and beta blockers are used to reduce the effect of noradrenaline for the treatment of migraines, cardiovascular diseases and psychiatric conditions.
